Approach of the Czech Health Politics to Strategy Health 2020
Machová, Kamila ; Háva, Petr (advisor) ; Tušková, Eva (referee)
The aim of the thesis is the assessment of developments in the approach towards the "European" strategy Health 2020 by Czech political players while using methods of critical discourse analysis and the assessment of the development of the Health 2020 agenda during the period 2010-2012 in the context of previous activities of the World Health Organization. The approach of the Czech health care political players to the strategy had been assessed on the basis of governmental programmatic statements since 1998, the National Reform Program of Czech Republic 2011 and interviews with participants in the Czech health policy and Czech health care. The approach of Czech health policy towards the Health 2020 strategy had been evaluated as extremely problematic. The course of creation and discussion of Health 2020 in 2012 had become a critical barrier for the Czech Ministry of Health. As a result, no wider awareness of this strategy exists in Czech health policy, neither does exist a Czech translation of this strategy. Lastly, the goals of Czech health policy do not reflect in a single point of the goals of the Health 2020 strategy.

Matějovicová, Ivana ; Šiška, Ladislav (advisor) ; Matyáš, Ondřej (referee)
The thesis, Survey of the methods of costing of hospitalization, deals with the characteristics of the classification system DRG used for costing of hospitalization. The first half of the theoretical part of this work describes the Czech health care in general and specific ways of financing it. We focus on the costs related to the emergency care in hospitals which are classified by the DRG system. The second half of the theoretical part studies the actual principles of costing of hospitalization. The method chosen for this is called Activity Based Costing (ABC). It defines the procedures of costing which are being used in hospitals. At the end, we provide a description of the current and suggested procedures of costing of hospitalization and how they are utilized to set up parameters of the reimbursing mechanism. The practical part of this thesis maps the situation of hospitalization financing in Klatovska nemocnice, a. s. We suggest a new way of financing based on the methodology DRG Restart. Base on the data obtained in Klatovska nemocnice, a. s. we summarize and compare the results of the new method to the current one.

Studie možných efektů zavedení tabulek k náhradě újmy
Mus, Jakub ; Bertoli, Paola (advisor) ; Dušek, Libor (referee)
The present thesis investigates the possible effects of limiting the compensations victims can obtain in medical malpractice cases through schedules of noneconomic damages. While economic damages are rather simple to calculate, problems arise with respect to the assessment of noneconomic damages. To reduce both the variability in the compensations granted to victims and the perception of a high level of arbitrariness in determining noneconomic losses, many countries have adopted different types of ceilings to limit the nonmonetary component of malpractice compensations. While flat and tiered caps have been widely studied in the related literature, the effects of schedules are still debated due to the scarce available evidence. Using Italy as a case study, I investigated the likely impact of schedules on noneconomic damages on a number of key outcomes showing that this policy can affect patients´ behavior and the filing of malpractice claims. Schedules are associated to a lower number of claims as well as of claims not decided on the merit. These results seem to be due to a drop in the number of frivolous claims. In addition, under schedules, average compensation and trial duration results to be higher. This is consistent with the expectation that under schedules there is a higher frequency of claims involving serious injuries. Hence, results could be further explored and used also in Czech Republic policy.

Dosoudilová, Petra ; Doležal, Ondřej (advisor) ; Lukášová, Tereza (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with financing of the health service in the Netherlands and in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part focuses on the health systems, principals of their operation and mechanisms based on which the health care is financed. The analytical part studies the analysis of financing of particular health systems in the Netherlands and the Czech Republic and their further comparison. The analysis covers the period from 2004 to 2014. At present both countries apply the same model of health system which is based on statutory health insurance. Despite this fact, the systems differ in various aspects, mainly the existence of multifunding system of compulsory insurance and high share of private insurance in the Netherlands. The aim of the thesis is to find possible solutions for the future development of the Czech health service which would lead to growth of private expenses share and greater accountability of the users of the system.
